Stolen Time

Every noon as the clock hands arrive at twelve, / I want to tie the two arms together, / And walk out of the bank carrying time in bags. 

Robert Bly, poet (b. 23 Dec 1926)

Lovely quote by Robert Bly. What about the 31st of December at the end of the decade? I'd love to nail the two hands together in a few days and walk out with a whole decade.
